John gives quick thoughts on Tiger's resilient Masters 1st round, and if pain and fatigue will be a factor if he makes it to the weekend. Then, he reacts to Tom Brady reportedly almost joining the Dolphins as a minority owner, explains why the Jets shouldn't trade for DK Metcalf, why the wide receiver boom isn't going away anytime soon, and how NFL teams make worse evaluations of prospects the further into the pre-draft process, and thoughts on Steve Wilks joining the Flores discrimination lawsuit against the NFL.

When it comes to NFL quarterbacks, some have it and some don't. Nobody knows that better than gamblers. And sometimes a simple difference in signal-callers can tip the scales when it comes to choosing a side. So today, Action Network Chief Content Officer Chad Millman and his pro gambler sidekick Simon Hunter welcome on Volume kingpin Colin Cowherd to discuss the characteristics they most prize in an NFL QB, as each builds a Top 10 list of QBs they trust with their money.

Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen make the list easily... but what about recent Super Bowl champion Matt Stafford? Lamar Jackson? And Is Russell Wilson a slam dunk? They guys break this all down, plus the QBs that will NEVER make their respective lists, in a fun, free-flowing episode sure to ignite debate.

Colin dissects the comments from Steph Curry who politely decline to team up with LeBron James and what this says about James at this point in his historically great career. He believes the latest Bruce Arians remarks downplaying Tom Brady's contributions to winning the Super Bowl is validating the rift Colin said was the reason Arians was forced out of his head coaching position. He also points out the number 1 problem facing the NBA right now. Plus, Greg Cosell from NFL Films joins the show to tell Colin why Pitt QB Kenny Pickett is the real deal and should be considered a legitimate first round prospect in the draft.
